The Story: Martha and her work are always engaged in a conversation of scale. In 1978, with the limited resources of a young art school graduate, she was forced to adapt the proportions of her work. Her yearning to create large pieces could not yet be fulfilled and so she began working in a scale accessible to her— creating uncommonly large, wearable sculpture. Martha went on to gain an international reputation as a leader in functional art and design. Her bold, iconic wearable sculpture was feature in ELLE, Vogue, and Harper’s Bazarr. As her creativity evolved, her collection developed into a series of sculptural home furnishings using resin, steel, brass, and salvaged cedar. Martha’s studio has since expanded to provide sophisticated, enduring custom furniture and fixtures for upscale retail and hospitality clients including, Louis Vuitton, Saks, Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, Four Seasons, and Fairmont.
